Former Vice President of Nigeria and chieftain of the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar congratulates renowned scientist
and pharmaceutical pacesetter Dr. Isa Odidi on his exploit as being the first
Nigerian and African to establish a high tech pharmaceutical facility in China.
The former Vice President notes that Dr. Odidi’s
achievements in Canada and recently in China are a welcoming addition to the
glowing credentials that Nigerian professionals in the Diaspora have built over
the time.
Atiku observes that Nigerian professionals in the Diaspora
like Dr. Odidi have earned a reputation for entrepreneurship, hard work and are
worthy ambassadors of the country.
Smart Pharmaceutical (Shanghai) Limited is a state of the
art pharmaceutical manufacturing and R&D plant in China.
“It is cheering news that in spite of our current challenges
at home, compatriots in the Diaspora like Dr. Odidi are making the country
proud in their respective professions.
“Our compatriots in the Diaspora are showing us the way that
a new Nigeria is possible where the wealth of the country will not only come
from the natural resource deposits inside our ground but also from the
intellectual powers of what we have inside our heads.
“Therefore, our responsibility is to endeavour to make it
easier and convenient for the inflow of cutting edge technology to Nigeria,
especially encouraging and creating an enabling environment for Nigerians in
Diaspora to deploy their skills in Nigeria so that our people can benefit from
it through jobs creation, skills transfer and revenue to the country.
“I congratulate Dr. Odidi on his impressive achievements and
urge Nigerian professionals at home and in Diaspora to continue to put daring
challenges to the frontiers of knowledge because the greatness of our country
is in the scope of their intellectual firmament.”
